A ghost is an incorporeal spirit of a dead person. Their abilities range considerably depending on the game system. Ghosts, like many undead creatures, usually linger because they desire the fulfillment of something, such as a task which they failed to finish.
In some settings (such as the World of Darkness), Ghosts. Spectres, and Wraiths are all variants of the same thing.
